Re: dwb - a webkit web browser

Pepper Flash is only supported via Chromium and derivatives. Since DWB is based on webkit-gtk, it would probably only be supported -if- Portix goes through with porting DWB to use Blink as it's rendering engine. Which he's hinted at, but also said he doesn't have time for right now.

Someday I hope these questions will stop being asked on every forum because flash will just be dead, like it deserves to be...

Re: dwb - a webkit web browser

Hi,

I am trying to get the content handler to pipe pdfs into zathura (a pdf viewer) with all websites. The solution I've got so far works for everything but www.arxiv.org (a scientific publication database that I work with a lot)... which uses some kind of forwarding? whatever it does my script leads zathura to prompt something along the lines of unknown filetype.

Re: dwb - a webkit web browser

dwb is great, here are my first questions:

-Is there any way to import bookmarks from Firefox or Chromium?-dwb does not remember visited links after I close it. When I reopen visited and unvisited links hae the same color. How should I fix it?Edit: I saw it is a wontfix... It is a very useful feature...

Re: dwb - a webkit web browser

Two slight problems I am having with dwb:

1- I have activated the adblocker and am using Easylist as the filter. I find there are a few sites that now load significantly slower - most are fine but about 10% of them take at least 10 seconds to load up, versus say two seconds. I can provide links if necessary. Has anyone else noticed this?

2- I have my old Chromium bookmarks in an html file that I have bookmarked as a local file. I can open that local file manually or from tabbed history, buy when I go to the dwb bookmarks page the file:/// will not open. Strange. Any ideas?

Re: dwb - a webkit web browser

Hey, I'm using a dark theme and I've got a problem opening/switching tabs. Every time I do so, there's a white flash during the brief moment the tab is being opened. I was using Luakit before and they had a fix to this by setting the webview transparent, but I can't find anything like that in dwb. Any ideas what to do?

Re: dwb - a webkit web browser

Cannot get HTML5 videos to play. I get the sound and the scolling works fine but screen is black. I have loaded all required gstreamer packages. Any ideas?

Thank you - that one package solved the problem.

Re: dwb - a webkit web browser

When one click the "Save" button a new URL should be created and available in the address bar, instead dwb shows me a blank page. Any ideas?

Re: dwb - a webkit web browser

I'm having weird bug with dwb-git on i3wm. When I open some websites, it killed my broadcom wireless driver(BCM4313,brcmsmac) and I cannot systemctl restart/stop/start NetworkManager from terminal either. When i switched to console tty2, I saw this messages flooded my screen continuously:

wl0: fifo 0: descriptor error
wl0: fatal error, reinitializing

The only way I know to get my NetworkManager and broadcom driver active again is to close the lid, put it to sleep for like 10 seconds, it works but too annoying when it happened too many times.

Then, I try dwb-git on XFCE and open the same site that killed my NetworkManager and Broadcom driver and this time, dwb crashed. But the network dan broadcom driver still alive. OK, alright.I love i3wm and dwb but I have to use XFCE right now if I want to continue using dwb.
